Homeschool: Wonders of Winter Part 2, The Watershed Institute

Tuesday February 10, 2026
10:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Date & Time: February 10, 17, 24 & March 3 | 10 a.m. – 12 p.m.

Grab your coat and boots, because your favorite homeschool teachers Miss Vicky and Miss Elizabeth are going to take you on a fantastic adventure through the season of winter! We'll hit the trail with our game cameras, look for ice palisades, learn how plants and animals survive, tap a maple tree for syrup, and discover treasures only revealed by the cold, short days of the year. 

Lessons will utilize our unique resource of the 950-acre Watershed Reserve. Classes will offer hands-on activities in a warm and personalized environment which fosters a sense of community and belonging within the group. Participants should come prepared to learn, engage, and have fun! We plan to be both indoors and outdoors (except in the worst weather) so please have students come dressed for the weather and wear waterproof footwear. 

This is the registration page for the second of two sessions, for registration of the first four classes visit the page for part 1here.

This program is intended for children ages 6 -12. We require an adult to accompany homeschool students to the Watershed Center and remain onsite during the program. Preregistration required.
